Description Martin Koller 2013-12-03 08:46:23 UTC 
I have a local running http server, which delivers an rpm file.
When I view this page with WebKit and click on the rpm file link, I get a dialog "open with..." but no preselected application to use. The "Type" shown for the rpm file is "Unknown"
When I open the same page with KHTML, I get the same dialog but it also shows the button "open with apper-installer". The "Type" shown for the rpm file is "RPM"
So it seems WebKit uses some other mechanism to detect the mimetype

Reproducible: Always

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
